So last night I was feeling pretty sorry for myself. I started cleaning my house. I scrubbed the toilet, mopped the bathroom floor. All the time, I was thinking, "God, I need a sign here that there's a reason for all of the crap that's happened this week, cuz I don't get it." By this time, I was on the front porch with the vacuum cleaner. Right before I started vacuuming, I saw the pile of mail sitting on the floor below the mail slot.
I picked up the stack of envelopes and started flipping through them. I came across a letter from the Solanus Casey Center in Detroit. The center is a Capuchin monastery, and it was named after Solanus Casey, a priest and holy man whose cause for sainthood is currently under consideration by the Vatican.
Inside the letter was a little holy card with a picture of Solanus Casey on it and this prayer: "Thank you God ahead of time for all your designs on my life!"
OK, God, Saint Marty got Your message.
